Treadmill - 1 Me - 0

Last night instead of walking outside, I decided to walk/run jog on the treadmill.....why o why does it seem so much harder and time drags on sssssooooooo much longer? I felt as if I was prepared for the battle ahead. I had a magazine and the t.v. was on in the room with a fan on and still the time past as if a minute was 20 minutes. The tracker for the calories burned seemed so wrong. How could I have been only at 120 burned calories after being on the treadmill for so long and painting loud enough for my husband to ask if I was ok? The competitor inside of me urged myself to go on and not lose to a machine but at 20:25 minutes I eneded the battle. Yes your eyes are not playing tricks on you....20:25 minutes felt as it were 60:25!
Today is a new day and I will fight to stay one longer...or just take the dog for a walk/run outside where I do not have the time, or calories burned blinking in my face bigger then times square.
